SUMMARY:Frederick County Civil War Roundtable Meeting and Presentation
DESCRIPTION:Please join the FCCWRT as Robert E. Crickenberger Jr. presents “Point Lookout and the Second Wave of Prisons.” As the Civil War progressed into its third bloody year\, federal campaigns were sending thousands of prisoners north in numbers that overwhelmed existing prisons. Furthermore\, the forced cessation of a prisoner exchange cartel compounded the burden of the already overcrowded prison system\, further denying the Confederate government of its much-needed manpower. By mid-1863\, a desperate Commissary General of Prisoners\, Colonel William Hoffman\, began scouring the northern states\, seeking locations to build new camps to better manage this sudden influx of prisoners. Hoffman’s latest prison\, Point Lookout\, began the succession of new holding areas in what is now referred to as the “Second Wave of Prisons.” \nThis presentation is free for members\, $5 suggested fee for non-members.

SUMMARY:Frederick County Civil War Roundtable Meeting and Presentation
DESCRIPTION:Stephen Romaine will present “The 1864 American Insurrection That Wasn’t” in an online-only presentation. The failure of Confederate clandestine operations in the latter part of the American Civil War to prevent Lincoln’s reelection are generally attributed to ineptness\, poor planning\, and a last-minute loss of nerve by the collaborators. There is some truth to this\, yet it is undeniable that the Lincoln Administration received an early leg-up on Rebel plans that proved consequential. The essay presents how a highly effective counter-insurgency effort was put in place that prevented the opening of a northern front that could very well have derailed Lincoln’s reelection. \nPlease note: This is an online only event and may be accessed at https://www.youtube.com/@nmcwm at the time noted.
